This Hebrew keyboard is based on the draft SII 1452 standard—an update to the standard Hebrew keyboard. It is already partially implemented in Windows 8. Its main feature is easy typing of nikkud and special Hebrew punctuation marks. This keyboard layout doesn't change anything in the standard Hebrew keyboard, but only adds the special characters and makes them accessible via the Alt key.

Here are the added characters. Each of these must be pressed with the Alt key to produce the Hebrew character. Nikkud and accents are shown with ם, as is customary on the website of the Academy of the Hebrew Language, except שׂ and שׁ, which only work with that letter.

Klucz

Result character

Mnemoniczny

`

Geresh (׳)

This character is similar in appearance to the apostrophe ('), but it is a proper Hebrew character. It also happens to be used on the Hebrew iOS keyboard instead of the apostrophe.
